Please congratulate Jade Hui on her very first acquisition for Atria Books!!! Jade is so dependable, kind, and smart. Any author would be lucky to have her as their future editor. Also Lindsay + Jade = a winning team! ⭐️

This book!!! It is extraordinary--read-in-one-sitting good, both sharply twisty and beautifully evocative. I am so honored to partner with the amazing Vanessa Walters, who is a star; her voice grabbed me from page 1 and didn't let go until the last! & It's deal of the day!!!🔥🎉
